STROKE CARE
Why Should You Choose Stroke Care?
The Stroke Care will help you in regaining independence following a stroke. In some cases, this can take time, through long-term rehabilitation and support. You will receive our Extra Care Plus services together with your carer arranging medical and rehabilitation appointments. We ensure only carers with experience of stroke care are placed with you or your loved one during the period of recovery. A detailed discussion of your level of care would be required prior to placement. They will demonstrate consistent monitoring and management of your conditions, which will help meet your evolving needs. They can also give you access to the outside world to enjoy some fresh air, which can work wonders on the spirit.
With effective carer rotas and regular use of the same carers that you get to know and like, we can offer you this exceptional continuity. Knowing that you are happy and in safe hands will give your loved one’s peace of mind.
What Are The Benefits Of Stroke Care?
Supported Home Living
The Stroke Care package will simplify and speed up your recovery. Your appointed carer will have experience in equipment provided for your recovery by the NHS or medical professionals. When thinking about this package, we would need to discuss the level of your needs, as it may require two carers. Your appointed carer will work alongside medical professionals to help with your rehabilitation and recovery.
Personal Care Plan
On carer placement, you will establish your personal care plan with your carer, tailored to your own needs. Our carers are not nurses, however will have experience in providing relevant care support.
Confidence
Feel confident in the knowledge that your carer has undergone high level vetting prior to placement, they are all skilled in live-in care practices and are insured to work in your home.
Cost Effective Care
Live-In Care is a cost-effective solution to staying at home, rather than living in residential accommodation.
Independence and Fulfilled Life
Maintain social engagements with family and friends. More time to relax and enjoy the day, let your carer take on the cooking and light household duties. The carer will accompany you on outings and appointments, when required.
Peace of Mind
Live-In Care provides you and your loved ones with peace of mind that you are in caring, empathetic and experienced hands, providing you with high-quality responsive care. The Extra Care Plus with this service is a comprehensive Live-In care package.
